How sweet of you to ask. ;o) Well, in the beginning, when I didn't think about agents or publishing houses or promotion or blog tours or networking emails or.... all of the accompanying "stuff," I used to write a chapter a day toward a new book. I would create one in about 2-3 months, then put it aside and start on the next one. That went on for a few years, then of course I decided I ought to actually pay attention to trying to get published. LOL. Once that started, and the need to promote came about, it slowed me down. Some years I do two new books a year, other years one book. It all depends on the timing of published works. This year is going to be crazy, because after Tremolo, which came out last November, I have two more ready to go to print, Mazurka, and Healey's Cave. Sigh. I wrote these books years ago, but now they are all tumbling out into print and it's a crazy, crazy time. Thanks for asking, Mayra, and good luck on your new book, The Slippery Art of Book Reviewing.Aaron Paul Lazarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06117814221437165664noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6001825743960552008.post-52438147832271519092008-06-15T09:10:00.000-04:002008-06-15T09:10:00.000-04:00Hi there!HI there, haikus aren't my thing and I'm ...Hi there!<BR/><BR/>HI there, haikus aren't my thing and I'm not in a flash fiction mood, but I was wondering... how many books do you write a year and how long does it take you to write a whole novel? Do you write a minimum set amount of pages a day?<BR/><BR/>You've written many books is a short time, so I was wondering.<BR/><BR/>Thanks! :-)<BR/>MayraMayra Calvanihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01444333264952371471noreply@blogger.com
